After hurricane Harvey devastated Texas, I started a campaign titled Artists for Texas. As a matter of fact, I have relatives that lost everything in that storm. Little did I know that Florida, specifically my former home town Naples was about to get hit just ahead of Puerto Rico. Therefore, as mentioned in the last campaign update, the campaign has been renamed to Art for Disaster Relief and extended until further notice, but likely the end of October.
The reasons I’m posting about helping hurricane families again is due to encourage others to help with this mass destruction. No amount is too small. Small amounts lead to larger sums, so every little bit helps. Additionally, I saw a disturbing video about one of the organizations I was going to donate to, so I’m choosing the following.
- Salvation Army
- ASPCA
Additionally, I’m making a personal donation to my relatives in Texas that lost everything. They have never needed flood insurance in their location. They were fine until the levy was released. Now they have lost everything.
NOTE, The Takacs fundraiser has currently ended. I’m hoping it will be extended. If so, I will update.
I would be honored you would join me to help out. Thank you.
Make sure you get your free October Calendar from yesterday’s post. Remember, I’m donating 10% of my sales to hurricane recovery efforts. Now is a great time to buy something from me or any other artists that are helping. What a great gift idea with the holidays approaching.
Please help share this post and spread the word.
Sincerely,
Tina A. Stoffel
